Sparklers for New Year’s Eve
Inlägget postat av: Kathrin on December 21, 2016
Hello everyone!
Happy to see you again here today at Vildastamps Blog for my second project of today.
Well, I know, christmas comes first but we crafter always are a little ahead in time and so I am sharing a New Year’s Eve – or New Year’s gift – idea with you today:
I don’t know about where you live, but here in Germany we love those sparklers for New Year’s Eve – especially smaller kids since they can hold them even when they are little and they don’t make any loud noises. At Stempeleinmaleins we had a tutorial for this sparkler wrap some time ago which you can find – both in german and english – HERE if you want to make one yourself.
I’ve cut the base from black cardstock and the overlay from white cardstock, stamping and heat embossing little stars on the white cardstock using golden embossing powder. This was also used on the edges of the paper.
On the bottom there’s plenty of room for decorations. So I stamped the star from the Squares, Circle and Star stamp set using black ink and the cutting it out around the outlines. Then I used Versamark and golden embossing powder to stamp the Christmascollage English Lyrics on top of it. It still looked kind of plain to me, so I added the smaller of the baubles from the Steampunk Christmas stamp set having it heat embossed again and using 3D tape for some dimesions. Underneath I put the numbers 2017 having made this using my Dymo.
When glueing the star to my bag, I put some cheesecloth and black lace on it first.
To not only have golden stars on the top of my wrapper I stamped the Wish upon a star saying from the Steampunk Winter stamp set heat embossing it again, then cut it out using a circle punch and tied it to one of the sparklers with some golden twine.
Dear ones, I am wishing all of you a wonderful and peaceful christmas and a great 2017!
Hugs, Kathrin
